Quick take
Five-inch saltwater soft lure with paddle tail and natural fish attractant for saltwater gamefish.
This slim paddle-tail soft swimbait comes seven to a bag in a Glow/Chartreuse Tail color. It measures 5 inches and is infused with salt and a fish attractant, which makes it a natural pick for inshore saltwater anglers. The paddle tail gives it a steady swimming action on a straight retrieve.

- You prefer large 7+ inch profiles
